Опис експоната

The viewer is encouraged to circumnavigate this large sculpture constructed of seven pieces of steel. The composition of its formal elements transforms when viewed from different vantage points. The work has no fixed visual identity, a plurality of configurations are simultaneously possible and valid.To keep the piece in harmony the individual elements are painted bright industrial pink. Caro selected this colour after the sculpture was finished and its identity established, to reinforce its mood. Caro uses applied colour to achieve a sense of weightlessness as it renders the surface of metal more optical than tactile. The fact that the central elements are a lighter shade of pink gives them an added suggestion of lift. Caro does not disguise Pink Stack’s engineering but nor does he puncture the illusion that gravity has been defied.Caro’s work does not emerge from a sketch or maquette but by directly experimenting with the placement of several forms, with no prior image in mind. Caro works close to the sculpture so that he does not edit it prematurely by applying preconceived notions of balance and composition. Once satisfied with the construction of his expressive abstract gestures, he welds the forms into position. His work is made in literal space, relating to the eye height of a standing person and cannot be enlarged or shrunk.During the 1950s Caro had been making figurative work modeled in clay or plaster and cast in bronze. In autumn 1959 he made a trip to America where conversation with Clement Greenberg and exposure to the sculpture of David Smith and paintings of Kenneth Noland triggered his conversion to abstraction. Caro turned to scrap steel, rejecting clay that bears the imprint of the artist’s hand and connotations of the human body. To distance himself from the figure, the totem and the monolith, Caro began to elongate his work. Length forced the sculptures to be read slowly, like a piece of music. Parodoxically, Caro felt he had was forced to make his sculpture abstract in order to make it more human.Caro

Біографія митця

Sir Anthony Caro: A Pioneer of Modern Sculpture

Early Life and Education

Born: March 8, 1924, in New Malden, Surrey, England.
Family Background: Caro was the youngest of three children to a Jewish family.
Education: He attended Charterhouse School, where he was introduced to sculpture through his housemaster and Charles Wheeler. Further studies included Farnham School of Art, Christ's College Cambridge (Engineering degree), Regent Street Polytechnic, and the Royal Academy Schools (1947-1952).

Artistic Development and Influences

Early Influences: Initially influenced by Henry Moore, with whom he worked as a studio assistant from 1951-1953. This early association instilled in him an appreciation for modernist sculpture.
Turning Point: A 1959 Ford Foundation scholarship led to a transformative trip to the United States, where he encountered American Abstract Expressionism and met key figures like Clement Greenberg, Kenneth Noland, and David Smith. The work of David Smith was particularly influential.
Shift in Style: Inspired by his experiences in America, Caro abandoned figurative sculpture and began creating abstract assemblages using welded steel and found industrial objects.

Key Characteristics and Style

Assemblage & Materials: Caro is renowned for his innovative use of materials – often ‘found’ or industrial components like I-beams, steel plates, and mesh.
Removing the Plinth: A defining characteristic of his work is removing sculptures from their traditional plinths, allowing viewers to engage with them directly on the floor and experience them in a more immersive way. This challenged conventional sculptural presentation.
Abstract Forms & Spatial Exploration: His sculptures are characterized by dynamic abstract forms that explore spatial relationships and create a sense of openness and movement.

Notable Works and Exhibitions

Twenty Four Hours (1960): An early example of his abstract steel sculptures, now in the Tate Britain collection.
Leaf Pool (1967): Showcased at Paintings in Hospitals, demonstrating his unique style and approach to form.
After Olympia (1982-87): A large-scale narrative work inspired by the Temple of Zeus at Olympia, showcasing his ability to create monumental pieces with complex narratives.
Exhibitions: Caro exhibited extensively internationally, including solo shows in Milan and New York, and participated in major group exhibitions.

Awards and Legacy

Order of the British Empire (CBE): Awarded for his services to art.
Triangle Arts Trust: Co-founded the Triangle Arts Trust in 1982, providing a space for artists to collaborate and experiment.
Historical Significance: Caro is considered one of the most important British sculptors of his generation. His work revolutionized sculpture by challenging traditional conventions and exploring new materials and forms. He profoundly influenced subsequent generations of sculptors and continues to inspire artists today.

Artistic Movements

Modernism: A core influence, breaking from traditional artistic norms.
Abstract Expressionism: Impacted his shift towards abstraction and emphasis on form and material.
Neoclassicism: Later work showed influences of classical Greek and Roman styles, particularly in narrative pieces like 'After Olympia'.
